Idiopathic means a disease or a condition without a known or specific cause.
Intracranial means within the cranium, or bony part of the skull that contains the brain.
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (Pseudotumor cerebri) means high pressure of blood in the brain, that occurs when the pressure inside your skull increases for no obvious reason.
Our brain and spinal cord are surrounded by cerebrospinal fluid, which cushions these vital tissues from injury. This fluid is produced in the brain and eventually is absorbed into the bloodstream at a rate that usually allows the pressure in your brain to remain constant.
The increased intracranial pressure of pseudotumor cerebri might result from a problem in this absorption process.
The condition can occur in any age group including children, but it’s most common in women who are obese and around childbearing.
